I NEED HELP PLEASE

Shit. Wish I had more notice. I'm at the mazdasnw meet in federal Way right now.

oh thats cool i wasnt meaning tonight or anything but maybe we can setup something for this weekend or wenever u might have some free time??

Aye that sounds pretty dam awsome ill do that asap.

So is the truck bed still off? Disconnect the taillights connectors to isolate that part, and then try to see if a fuse blows. Go from there.

If nothing, reconnect and disconnect the front parking lights connectors. Etc.

Process of elimination.

i know how u feel wiring sucks balls but if ur patent u will get it trust me lol and it dont matter to me im always down for a drive lol text me sometime my names justin 425 622 2255 i work late nights so weeks ends would be best but we can figure it out

I find wiring pretty straightforward in most cases on vehicles on this vintage, but agree that there could be more information even in the official service manuals and wiring diagrams. Get a $5 12 volt test light and a decent $15 digital multimeter.

Like in the mid-1990s (before Internet, at least for me) even with the '88 Service Manual I had a "dickens" of the a time trying to find the actual location of the Malfunction Indicator wires so I could swap the leads at 60K miles. The drawing in the manual was so close-up that I couldn't even determine if that was in the cab or in the engine compartment !!!

To look towards adding aftermarket cruise control, I posted and even PM'd a few calling themselves Master Nissan Technicians to try to get a lead where the VSS (vehicle speed sensor) wire was on my 2004 Frontier. I could tell it was a green wire with a black stripe, couldn't find it on the ECM (which had real-cramped access anyway, even with harness disconnected). Anyway, finally pulled the instrument cluster rearward, found it (and the tach wire but didn't need that because I found VSS); so I soldered a labeled pigtail wire onto it, dropped it under the dash for the future.

I think a lot of today's technicians are just parts replacers.

^^^ Yup, degrees in lego and that's about it ^^^
Pull parts and replace them until the problem goes away, lol.
Sad sad world.
